Meet Dasha Fuentes, NXT's newest broadcaster

The team that broadcasts WWE NXT around the world on WWE Network every Wednesday has a new face. Dasha Fuentes is the latest member of the team, getting backstage interviews with your favorite NXT Superstars and Divas.

An Orlando native and graduate of the University of Central Florida — where she studied microbiology and molecular biology — Fuentes also competed in the Miss America organization, winning a number of titles, including Miss UCF and Miss Volusia County.

“I was actually en route to getting my doctorate in physical therapy when I was gifted a great opportunity [to join WWE],” she told WWE.com.

Fuentes arrived at the WWE Performance Center in May of 2014 to train to become a WWE Diva. Her athletic background as a swimmer, diver and gymnast helped her learn the ropes until a knee injury sidelined her in the summer of 2014.

“That’s where the true colors of WWE showed,” she explained. “Everything from therapy to rehab, everything to get me back into the ring was phenomenal.”
